    Shorten your .17 HMR ???

    30calterry mentioned he d like to shorten the Marlin Heavy Barrelled .17 HMR as they are a pretty bulky heavy unit.
    I did some research and found enough info to throw it all in a picture in case some were thinking the same.
    It looks like a small velocity loss for a bit of weight loss and better handling ability. (Use at your own risk but reckon Ill go to 16" from 22)
    All the information I found stressed to find someone would re-crown it properly !!
